Christ church Is the mother parish Of
the Episcopal communion IN Savannah.
On the site OF the present edihce stood the
chapel in which John Wesley ministered
as chaplain to the first cOlonists. The
lot was laid out for a church the year
that Oglethorpe landed. but no attempt
was made to build upon it until seven
years atterward, when rude frame
building was commenced. six years
later the shingles we're placed upon it,
and it was finally completed and dedI-
to ashes. 1t was rebuilt on an
year later it was nearly destroyed by n
hurricane. 1t was again rebuilt in 1910
and was cOnsecrated in 1915, but was
taken down to give place to the present
structure, the cornerstone of which was
laid in February, 1888 The building is
one of the most imposing in the city.
The ceiling or native pine in the interior
is one of the handsomest In this country.
Back Of the altar is Il magnificent memo
rial window, presented by the Sunday
school in memory Of Bishop Elliott, who
was rector Of the church tor many years.
The marble font is beautiful work of
art aud was presented by w. Grayson
Mann, Esq.
Rev. Henry Herbert, who came over
with the first settlers of Georgia, was The
first rector OF the church and was the
first Episcopal minister in Georgia. He
was succeeded by Rev. 5. Quincy, who
remained until 1735. when John Wesley
became rector. The latter was succeeded

Americas Recorder: A day or two
since prominent professional gentleman
OF this CITY entered the office OF another
p. p. Z. and asked il certain statements
regarding himself, and which he there re-
peated, had really been made by the lat
ter. The gentleman replied that the state
ments referred TO had been made as
quoted, whereupon the first named p. p.
z. waved exceeding wrath-so mucn so
that the proprietor Of the office reached
around for the fire poker wherewith TO
defend himself against the vol
umes OF wrath pouring out upon
him. When he faced about, however,
with his poker at "carry arms" he was
appalled, AT beholdlng his agyressor boldly
facing MIN with weapon in hand about
the size Of a small Krupp gun. The poker
party seeing the advantage held over him
by his opponent and believing discretion
to be tho better part OF valOr very wisely
desisted from making an advance and
slowly retIeated under cover OF
the gun. The affair did not leak out until
Yesterday, but now that il is generally
known we give the facts reported 10 us.
The grand jury will probably take slice
Of the affair at the next session OF court.
Greensboro Home journal: On last
Monday morning brutal attack was
made on Mr.. l.. G.. Perdue by negro
named johnson Stevens, one of his hands.
Saturday night the negro, who, it seems,
had been in the habit of making occa-
sional trips to Madison, came to Mr.. Per-
due with the request for a dollar, which
was refused. Monday morning early he
came up demanding settlement and say

The Trinidad Advertiser cannot
wait for the boom to reach that city,
as it surely will in short time, but
tries to hurry up matters by talking
about moving our Land Office to that
uity. The desire to get up a little
excitement on Trinidad is commend
able in the Advertiser but never
having experienced \ boom the edi-
tor of the Advertiser Is n little
awkward at first but gives promise
of doing first-rate in time. Now
when a new land district and land.

for some place to ask for it, Trinidad
was taking a nap. Lamar appeared

gathered the prize in. Trinidad
wakes mp and says, "Here. That
appears to be pretty good thing.
Give it TO us, we want it." Just so.
So do we, and we intend to keep it.
There is no cause for you to mourn,
however, MS everybody that knows
anything about the country and the
boom realizes that Trinidad will
make one Of the best towns in Colo
RADIO whether they particularly de-
sire it or not and it is only foolishness
10 try and work up boom on a
false basis. They have good
enough thing to tell the truth. Any
thing else will work an injury to
them and when they know more
about booms than they do now
